Patient Comments
- September 23, 2023 Michael Harris has consistently provided me with a compassionate service over several years. Because of our history together, Michael knows my medical history and its improvements and its few deteriorations. It saddened me to learn that Michael will be transferring to a different service. Since I will be starting with a new provider next visit, I have apprehensions as to how long it will take me to develop the same relationship or if I will be bouncing from one provider to another.

- October 22, 2022 Michael is by far the most gifted medical person I am seeing. He also has the genuine gift of communication that gives the patient the feeling of confidence that he will know how to treat almost any condition and aid the healing process. Michael is not arrogant and never comes across as an individual superior to others. When I need an answer to a questioning situation, Michael is the first person I consider calling or texting and he never fails to respond. If he doesn't have an answer he will admit it but sure enough, he will find out. Although Michael is a special physician, I find there are many like him at Wake Forest Baptist Medical groups and this is where I will continue to reach out for all my needs.
- October 22, 2022 Dr Michael Harris is always my first choice. So caring and concerned.
- October 17, 2022 Discussed my concern for weight gains. He listened to my concerns and recommended a specific prescription to aid in my possibly losing some weight. I failed to ask him, however, how much the cost would be. Found out my insurance does not cover this specific medication. Been trying to reach the office to discuss if Harris, PA-C could write a different prescription for weight loss to no avail. Sent question on myWakeHealth, but no response yet. Seems almost impossible to contact the office for a simple question. Must always go through main number at another location.
